Any changes to your "automotive family" soon?
Anyone else have thoughts of changing up the automotive family?
For a while, I've wanted to add the following vehicles to my car family:
1975 Caprice Classic convertible
1977 Caprice Classic sedan
1978 Caprice Classic coupe
1989 Caprice Classic 9C1
1987 Monte Carlo SS Aerocoupe
But, now ... the only vehicle I want to add to my family is a 1989 Caprice Classic (sedan or 9C1), to be the "summer" daily driver to my "winter warrior" 1979 Caprice Classic sedan.
Along with that, I've decided that, if the "right" '1989 CC (good shape, FI, cruise control, A/C, power, road trip worthy, etc.) comes along, I'll probably sell my 1972 MC. Why? Because my '72 MC is the only "expendable" MC I own ... the '76 is the year my parents had; the '79 is my first car; the '81 was my parents' car; and the '87 has sentimental reasons for the year....
But, even that plan could change, if my next checkup indicates I need more surgery ...and/or... I buy my own house....
In the meantime, my newest cars will have to do ... ~50 of them. I bought 80 cars, ~30 of which I bought for my nephew, who is learning what each car is VERY quickly!
I bought these 2 for Dad:

I change my lineup frequently so I don't get too bored. My guess is that I'll probably get another 4wd soon since I'm getting the offroad itch pretty badly. I'd also like to get something with a manual trans. Typically I always keep one in the fleet for when I'm in the mood to shift through gears. It's been 6 months since I sold the last one I had. That's another itch.
I'm thinking Jeep Wrangler, Suzuki Samurai, GEO Tracker, somewhere in those lines unless I run across a small extended cab 4wd.

Yes, I'm fixing to sell my 2003 Mercedes CL600 so I can support my Laguna addiction.
Also, I may have found an '87 Grand National for a good price...

I've been thinking of getting a 73-77 Chevelle wagon. I also just recently got a 94 Cop Caprice for the LT1 engine & tranny that I'll probably drive until I'm ready to part it out.

Wes, is that cop car in bad enough shape to part out? Around here they sell for quite a bundle. JB

I'm thinning out my herd. I already got rid of my Colorado, and I'm getting my Chevelle wagon ready to be sold. I'm gonna be down to a 2 door Blazer for DD use, then I'll also still have my '74 Chevelle.

Impala is in paint jail? Better post up pics when it gets a fresh coat of titty pink. LMAO!

I've never seen titty pink...is that a GM color? Sounds more like a Mopar shade.
Are we talking like breast pink, or more of a nipple-ish pink/brown?

LoL! If you did that to your car, it would be a permanent ban.
Seriously though, are you sticking with Black Cherry?
